I'm an Oxymoron

...
I think I am an oxymoron
quite different but the same.
Understanding less is more 
Subdued, yet can’t be tamed.

I’ll split in two while being whole
ditzy and still brainy.
Make many plans w...

October Nips

...Busty shaped and large of hip
the busy winds of October
buffet my brain
within its whistling cave.

Around the shoulders
of every lumpy molehill
taverns and tankards

An Original Story

...The day after I was birthed,
God and a bunch of sassy angels
played Irish fiddles in a beery bordello,
a place not yet colorized into reality.

The next day,
squealing in my two-day-old
tight ...

Berts Stag Night

...Sitting upside down in the car
On its roof and well concealed
By the hedge it just leapt to
Land upside down in this field
The lesson being learned 
When going round a bend
Trying  to pick up a...

Boggle

...Blow down the snozzle
this windy wild world
is nowt but a hornswoggle.

Giddy are the blue birds
in head and heart,
blithered are the bush-beating

On its roof and well concealed
By the hedge it just leapt to
Land upside down in this field
The lesson being learned,

Summer 1961, Sussex

...What a stupid situation
Twenty foot above the ground
But when I reach the bottom
I’m nearly half way round
It was Ronnie Hatchard said it
Hey boys lets have some fun
Go back to camp and do

Another Place

...In a London pub fingers idly play with place mats.

Magical Life Wonders

...I brag of being in the garden, jogging there each day,
It swings a haptic brunt on both, form and the prey.
My scrutiny was utterly borne by a sparkle to glow,
The delight arose to be ...

Two Word Tango

...At lunch 
A hunch
An idea
Drink beer

Bad choice
Beery voice 
Spinning head
Need bed 

Got undressed 
Feeling stressed 
Seeing double 
Big trouble 

Next morning 
No warning 
Hangove...

Watering Hole

...Apart from the worn stone-step
where drunks still topple
all has changed.
Now a neon glow backlights a plasticized fascia.

In the in the parking lot two blonds face-off.

Fishwives

...Fishwives 

In junkets to 
     the golden shore 
Beside the cobalt 
     sea of lore 
Was told of dwellings 
     and rapscallions
Of ramshackled wood 
     and galleons.
Where ancient mar...

along the shores of Peru. 

The tail thing is a myth because ...
